Best IT World (India) Pvt. Ltd. (iBall) — 2 prefixes (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- Best IT World is registered to MAC prefix
A0:47:D7and 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins withA0:47:D7, that block was registered by Best IT World — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- Two independent OUI assignments plus multi-source company corroboration (business registries, own site) place this vendor above a bare single-OUI shell. Router-specific security findings are documented at the product-line level only, not linked to a specific OUI prefix or MAC sample.
About this vendor.
A MAC address starting with A0:47:D7 or 00:1E:A6 belongs to Best IT World (India) Pvt. Ltd., the Mumbai-based company that designs and sells consumer electronics under the iBall brand, typically seen on computer peripherals and small networking devices such as travel routers.
Both prefixes are IEEE MA-L (24-bit OUI) assignments registered to the same Mumbai address — 87 Mistry (Industrial) Complex, MIDC Cross Road "A", Andheri-East, Maharashtra, India 400093 — under a punctuation variant of the same company name ("Best IT World (India) Pvt Ltd" vs "Best IT World (India) Pvt. Ltd."). Holding two independent OUI blocks under one registrant already rules out a bare, single-registration shell.
Independent business-registry and networking-profile sources corroborate the company as an active, identifiable Mumbai firm trading as iBall, founded in 2001 with a pan-India branch network and a product line spanning 26+ consumer-electronics categories: keyboards, mice, webcams, speakers, power banks, and routers.
iBall's own site (iball.co.in) confirms peripherals as the core catalog. A router/networking category also surfaced in search results, including a "3G+Wi-Fi Travel Router with Built-in Battery" listing, though a direct fetch of that category URL returned 404 at check time — router-line presence is corroborated via the search snippet and independently via CVE records, not a live page read.
Multiple public CVEs and exploit writeups document security flaws in iBall-branded routers (e.g. the Baton 150M / iB-WRA150N and Baton ADSL2+ iB-LR7011A lines) — hard-coded credentials and authentication-bypass issues. These are company/product-line findings; no source ties either OUI prefix to a specific vulnerable model.

- Analyst note
- Two independent OUI blocks plus multi-source company corroboration place this vendor above the bare-shell bar; treat router-specific device attribution and any specific model-to-prefix mapping as unverified pending a source that ties a MAC sample to a named iBall product.
